Preliminary findings indicate deceased Teoh Beng Hock had no unexplained external injuries and died due to injuries from a high fall, police revealed today.

According to Bernama, Selangor police chief Khalid Abu Bakar said police have yet to rule out foul play in Teoh's death, but the case is still classified as a 'sudden death'.

"The initial report from the pathologist showed that Teoh didn't suffer any external injuries at the moment. However, we will wait for the full report from the pathologist concerned in a few days.

"For the time being, it was found that Teoh died from 'multiple injuries due to fall from a height," said Khalid.

An autopsy on Teoh was conducted yesterday at the Tengku Ampuan Rahimah Hospital in Klang by two pathologists.

Teoh, 30, was found dead on the fifth floor balcony of Plaza Masalam, Shah Alam on Thursday, after the Selangor Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) recorded his statements on the 14th floor of an adjacent building.

Khalid stressed that he was merely presenting initial findings and the case would be looked at from all possible angles.

17 MACC officers quizzed

He added that the police have taken statements from 23 witnesses, including 17 MACC officers.

There has been no arrests thus far.

According to Khalid, the police will also be interviewing Teoh's family, friends and colleagues.

He said the police were also reviewing CCTV footages of lifts and the carpark in the building.

The investigations into Teoh's death is being led by Selangor Commercial Crime Investigation Department chief Hasnan Hassan.

words defy me! Forgive my naiveness, a rc may be the best to do the inquiry, but how much power does a RC has? will the "corruption agency" cooperate? will the pdrm cooperate? or.. as such... will any bn agencies cooperate ... ?

I'm a pessimist, but prove me wrong... if any light can be shed on the death of TBH?

The design is 40's inspired and comes with a 38mm case, while the Navitimer World is one of Breitling's largest watches ever made, measuring 10% bigger than the Navitimer. The Bentley Motors for Bentley collection is a self explanatory collaboration between two of the most renowned brands within their respective industries. Some of the less popular Bentley Motors T collections (among the general populace at least) seem to be the Aeromarine Avenger and Colt ones as well as the Professional Skyracer. Since all Navitimer Watches really are "instruments for professionals" they focus more on the functionality of the watch versus the look and when you first look at these collections.

Sdr Teoh Beng Hock (1979-2009)

We are mourning the death of Sdr Teoh Beng Hock who passed away on 16th July 2009.

Sdr Beng Hock was invited by the Selangor MACC (Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission) to assist in their investigation into constituency allocations. He went to the MACC Headquarters at around 5.40pm on 15th July 2009 but never came back. His body was found on the 5th floor of Wisma Masalam at 1pm on 16th July, less than 20 hours later. The MACC office is located on the 14th floor of the same building.

Sdr Beng Hock previously worked as a reporter for Sin Chew Daily and joined the office of Selangor Exco, Ean Yong Hian Wah after the 2008 General Election as the latter's political secretary. He was a helpful and diligent young man, liked by all who worked with him and cherished by those who are his good friends.

The death of Sdr Beng Hock is shrouded in mystery and a slew of unanswered questions. It involved a power law enforcement agency in the country – MACC - that was supposed to protect the interests of the people and the country. There have been many police custodial deaths but this is the first case of death in the custody of the MACC.

We demand answers and a detailed explanation of the death of Sdr Beng Hock. We demand justice for Sdr Beng Hock!
